House+and+home

=Ideas for teaching house and home:=


 * 1. Realtor search:** Students search for an apartment in a target culture city. They record/report the location, rental price, rooms, furnishings, etc. in the target language.


 * 2. Collaborative dream house:** Students are given a large piece of newsprint. Students take turns naming a room in their dream house and draw it onto the paper (like a blueprint), drawing in furnishings. Then they pass the paper to the next group member. Group member number 2 repeats what the 1st person drew and them adds their own. The activity continues to move around the group as more and more rooms and furnishings are added.


 * 3. House Hunt:** Students create a game board similar to that of the game "Clue" with rooms of a house. One student determines where each character is in the house (character cards can be made). Group members guess which room each person is in by asking yes/no questions about what the character is doing in that room or what is in that room.
